No ONE knows definitely what the Lake
Shore & Western is aiming at by Its pre-
| hminary survey of line to the westward
except it be the officers who direct things.
There is so much rivalry at present be-
tween roads. that contemplated move
ments must be kept secret until all things
are ready for their perfection.

competitive exhibition of hOmely men.
But Billy knows a thing or two, mayhap
it may be stretched to three. One of the
things he knows is that people don't like
to be cooped up in close bus in warm
weather, and so Billy has furnished his
patrons with an open bus.
AT the meeting of the board of alder
man on Monday, r. I. Blake was APP

but it was withdrawn for amendment.
ENDURANCE OF SOCIETY PEoPLE.-A
prominent society lady of Washington
being asked by the Prince of Wales, why
is it you people here manifest so little
fatigue from dancing, receptions, etc."
replied, why, you see, we Americans re-
gain the vitality wasted in these dissipa-
tons by using DR.. Harter's Iron Tonic"
The railroads in Wisconsin furnish
editors with thousand mile tickets instead
of passes. These are furnished on con-
tracts for advertising. But many of these
tickets are sold to scalpers and the edi-
tors are black-listed when the matter be-
comes known. It is said the Lake Shore
& Western has taken up number Of
milage tickets which have been disposed
of by editors.

We desire to direct the attention of the
ladies of Manitowoc and vicinity to the
fact that O. Torrison has just received a
very large and complete assortment of
short spring wraps. The bead trimmed
wrap is again the fashionable garment for
spring wear, and Mr.. TOrrisOn's stock
will readily testify to the fact that style
Gn all grades and qualities of goods was
carefully considered. The best selection
can be made by calling early, before the
stock is broken" 2
